2:00 am
arthel: we'll see you tomorrow at noon eastern time. jon: president trump is ramping up his rhetoric on immigration. good evening, i'm jon scott, this is "the fox report." ♪ ♪ jon: the proposal comes as the white house looks to strengthen the nation's immigration policies after a series of shake-ups at the department of homeland security and as the border patrol reports a huge upswing in the number of families attempting to cross into the u.s.es illegally. the idea drawing fierce criticism from democrats as the president urges them to act. >> we could fix that in so fast if the democrats would agree. but if they don't agree, we might as well do what they
2:01 am
always say they want, we'll bring the illegal, really you call them the illegals, we'll bring them to sanctuary city areas and let that particular area take care of it. we can give them an unlimited supply, and let's see if they're so happy. they say we have open arms, they're always saying we have open arms. j jon we have -- jon: we have fox team coverage on this. we begin with ellison barber at the white house. >> reporter: jon, the president says he is strongly considering this idea even though his administration has been warned it is likely illegal. the president tweeting this, quote: due to the fact that democrats are unwilling to change our very dangerous immigration laws, we are indeed, as reported, giving strong considerations to placing illegal immigrants in sanctuary cities only. sources tell fox news the white house previously asked the department of homeland security and i.c.e. if it would be possible to bus large numbers of
2:02 am
immigrants from the southern border to sanctuary cities. i.c.e. told the white house that would be illegal, that it violates the laws guiding immigration enforcement authority and rickses on appropriations. restrictions on appropriations. on thursday "the washington post" and "the new york times" quoted a dhs official as saying this proposal was a suggestion that was floated and rejected which ended any further discussion. white house officials were saying the same thing, then on friday president trump said something entirely different in the roosevelt room. >> so on sanctuary cities, as per your question, we are giving very strong consideration to having people, after a 20-day period -- because, again, you're not allowed legally to hold them for more than that -- we will move them into sanctuary cities. >> reporter: here's how the white house is explaining what seems to be a fairly sudden reversal. >> that discussion that occurred was mostly between adviserses. it was conversations that we had between the white house and the department of homeland security.
2:03 am
in speaking with the president, the president said let's look into this. you know, at the end of the day, the president of the united states is the one who is going to the determine what our immigration policy is. >> reporter: president trump and his advisers say the situation at the border is dire and that democrats need to step up and pass legislation to fix what they see as major loopholes in the u.s. immigration system. asylum laws, chain migration, catch and release. the president also says he is planning to send more troops to the u.s./mexico border. democrats say the president is playing politics here and playing politics with real people's lives. jon? jon: ellison barber at the white house, thank you. reaction is swift to president trump's suggestion that any migrants who make it across our southern border asking for asylum should be sent to sanctuary cities including many places that are home to some of our political rivals. some democratic leaders are pushing back on the idea. >> i don't know anything about it but, again, it's just another
2:04 am
notion that is unworthy of the presidency of the united states and disrespectful of the challenges we face as a country, as a people to address who we are, a nation of immigrants. jon: jeff paul is live in los angeles with the latest. jeff. >> reporter: jon, from mayors to members of congress, the reaction has been strong and swift. some saying the president's idea is a waste of time, others going as far as saying it's helping him put forth a racist agenda. but the mayor of san jose saying despite what happens, his city's arms are always open to migrants. >> we welcome any families, the city of san jose, who have endured such incredible hardships and have endeavored to make a better life for themselves and their families and want to be a part of our great country. >> reporter: elsewhere in the state california senator kamala harris took to twitter saying: using human beings, including children, for perceived
2:05 am
political game is reprehensible. and oakland's mayor wrote that it's an outrageous abuse of power, using human beings to settle political scores. our president wants to punish everyone, those who seek sanctuary in our country and those who provide it. but not all politicians in states where there are sanctuary communities believe the policies are helping. the mayor of yuma, arizona -- which is right along the u.s./mexico border -- says he's hoping if trump's plan happens that it would take some pressure off of his city. >> i think that's great. if they're going to say that they're going to be a sanctuary city, we have not made that declaration, and so we are receiving families every day from border patrol releases. so if they can release them where they're prepared for them, that'd be great. >> reporter: congressman tom mcclintock, who represents a district that neighbors sacramento, also weighing in. he says it'll be a wake-up call,
2:06 am
and the country could see sanctuary policies rapidly being reconsidered. jon? jon: jeff paul from los angeles, thanks. april 23rd, that's the new deadline that committee chairman richard neal set for the irs commissioner to hand over president trump's tax returns. this comes after the trump administration ignored the request to provide six years of the president's personal tax returns by the committee's original deadline which was last wednesday. for more on the democrats' fight to get their eyes on those documents, here's ed henry. >> reporter: president trump dismissed a democratic deadline of thursday to turn over six years of tax returns, noting the american people had already litigated the matter. >> remember, i got elected last time, the same exact issue with the same intense, which once very much because, frankly, the people don't care. >> reporter: while the president is correct, he won despite not revealing any returns, he's not right that the public does not care.
2:07 am
74% of americans and 54% of republicans believe in general the president of the united states should be required to release his or her tax returns. there is no such requirement, though there was precedent dating back to president richard nixon of candidates in both parties voluntarily releasing them. >> while i'm under audit i would not give my taxes. >> reporter: contrary to the president's claims, irs commissioner charles red ig says there's no -- roedick says there's no rule prohibiting the release of a tax return because of an audit. >> it is your job and your job alone to respond to chairman neal's request. do you agree with that? >> we received the letter, we're working on the letter with counsel, and we anticipate responding. remember that we're a bureau of the treasury, we are supervised by the treasury. >> reporter: a 1924 law states
2:08 am
the treasury secretary shall turn over the tax returns of any american upon written request by a relevant committee chairman on capitol hill. in this case, house ways and means chairman richard neal set up a remarkable legal clash likely to be settled by the courts. democrats go fishing after their hopes of russian collusion fizzled, according to republicans. >> it's witch hunts in every direction. every single day all you see is an attempt to harass the president. jon: ed henry reporting. ed, thank you. attorney general william barr is promising lawmakers his redacted version of the mueller report will be released next week. this as barr's four-page summary of the special counsel's investigation that created such controversy two weeks ago is now sparking fresh debate on capitol hill. garrett tenney has the latest from washington. garrett. >> reporter: well, jon, this week the attorney general testified that congress should have their redacted version of the mueller report by tuesday if
2:09 am
not sooner. democrats are demanding to see the full report without any redactions though, and in this week barr said he is willing to work with congress to provide more details from mueller's investigation. that offer was not enough for top democrats though who responded by attacking the attorney general's credibility and suggesting he is trying to protect the president by removing damaging information from mueller's report. >> the attorney general did exactly what president trump wanted. he dodged questions, peddled a conspiracy theory and, like the president, lobbed baseless accusations. it's clear for mr. barr the title he holds is far less important than the boss he serves. >> reporter: democrats are preparing to try and get the full mueller report without the attorney general. the house judiciary committee has already prepared subpoenas to get the unredacted report through the courts in case they are not pleased with what barr gives them. president trump's outside legal
2:10 am
team is also preparing for the release of the mueller report. rudy giuliani said they are still considering releasing their own report as a rebuttal to mueller's investigation depending on what the full report says. >> we're ready and we'll be ready for anything they throw at uses. i suspect it'll be nothing that we're not prepared for, haven't thought of or the president hasn't thought of, and we were ready for it three months ago. the reality is there was no collusion. it's a joke but it's worse than a joke. it was a set-up, it was a specific conspiracy to frame him. i think the facts are starting to come in on that. >> reporter: that's another thing to watch down the road. the attorney general has assembled a team to investigate the origins of the trump-russia probe which ises in addition to an ongoing probe by the justice department inspector general looking into possible surveillance abuses by the fbi on individuals close to the campaign. that probe by the i.g. is expected to be complete in may or june. jon? jon: garrett tenny in washington, thank you.

2:31 am
our southern border. let's bring in david marks, news editor for the washington examiner. the president proposes taking illegal immigrants to sanctuary cities, the question is, can he do that? does he have the power? >> it's not really clear that he does have the power. as was noted in the report just a little while ago, congress appropriates the money for how the department of homeland security apportions immigration issues and resourcings. it's not clear that the dhs can just move migrants -- illegal, legal, whatever -- to one place or another as they see fit wellly nilly. so that would almost certainly be fought in court -- jon: but whether it's legal or not, it certainly had the effect, probably i'm guessing that the president wanted, to fire if up the oppositions. >> absolutely. and you saw interesting reactions. mayors in some of the sanctuary cities essentially said bring it on. that was in san jose,
2:32 am
california, oakland, california. whether they really looked at what it might entail to have all these new people in their jurisdictions, that's another matter. but for political purpose, they're ready for the fight. jon: let me play that sound from the mayor of san jose, california, responding to the president's veiled threat. here it is. >> we welcome any families, the city of san jose, who have endured such incredible hardships and have endeavored the make a better life for themselves and their families and want to be a part of our great cup. jon: -- great country. jon: so, you know, there are those who say, go ahead, do it, bring it on, but you don't get the impression that the administration or the congress would necessarily like to see the president follow through on this idea. >> right. i'm not sure either side really wants this to happen despite what the mayor is saying there. it would still entail the spending of a lot of resources that are already pretty limbed in his own city. -- limited in
2:33 am
his own city. at the same time, it's not clear what the administration and republicans in congress would really get out of this. in fact, there are sanctuary cities in cities represented by republicans in the senate, in colorado, pennsylvania and elsewhere. they might not be exactly thrilled at the property peck of all -- prospect of all of in the. jon: the president seems to have found an issue that is going to continue to propel him through the 2020 election. >> well, that's right. he knows this is what his base wants, we're just about a year and a half out, agree with him or not this is why he was elected. this is what many of his fondest, keenest supporters want to hear. and whether it actually happens or not, whether he can use the levers of government to make these things happen, the fact that he keeps talking about it gins up his own base just like for the democrats. they can then go on the defense or the ons, you might say --
2:34 am
offense, you might say, and rally their own supporters. like it or not, it's a hot political issue on both sides. jon: mark morgan is the border patrol chief under president obama. he had some reaction to the president's idea. listen. >> i think this is really being borne out of frustration, but he's trying to send a clear message because, make no mistake, sanctuary cities are part of this crisis. they are signaling and telling immigrants come here illegally, exploit our laws and our generosity. not only will we take you in, we'll protect you, we'll reward you, and we will thwart the law enforcement from trying to do their job. it's truly unbelievable. jon: and then there is this tweet from the president who tweeted this out earlier today, he says: if the radical left democrats all of a sudden don't want the illegal migrants in their sanctuary cities -- no more open arms -- why should others be expected to take them into their communities? what do you think about that?
2:35 am
>> the crux of the argument, and that's what this immigration fight is really all about. ing the trump administration probably wants to go a bit further than maybe even some republicans in congress. they want to kind of change the nature of the immigration process to make it less of a lottery, more based on merit as they say. democrats in congress are fighting that tooth and nail. they don't want any part of it. that's what's made compromise so difficult here and one of the reasons that we really have not come to any kind of deal when it is reaching crisis proportions as really both sides say at this point if it were a matter of dealing with just undocumented migrants, illegal immigrants, there probably would be a compromise. but trying to change the broader immigration system, that's much tougher. jon: david mark, news editor at the washington examiner, thank you. >> thank you. jon: the race for 2020 is already heating up, and there's a wide range of issues americans will be weighing at the ballot box. harris faulkner is hosting a
